Transit Our Fall Line of Ladies' Suits and Coats and Children's Coats was robbed in transit and almost half of it stolen. It breaks the line of sizes, and as they were not careful in replacing the goods in the box they are slightly mussed, and for this reason we are making a very attractive price on the lot.

The buuqtiettera as noaibled arimud the festive board at 10 o'ulck and for several hours liteu ed to college Bongs, addrewsea and Kpeecbea. lo f i.ct it was uot until tbe early hours of tbe uioroing that they were fPtisOed to quit the goene of least and uieiry uiukiug. The banquet ball was beautifully decorated with aututnu leaves, flow era and college Hag and pennants aua tbe menu was tempting enough to suit tbe mo.it fastidious. Many ot tboee present had helped t make the b g apple show a success in aoine way aud the allali was a tilting close to liood Hirer's gro test event. At tbe hour appointed for opeuiog the banquet the members matched in a body to the banquet room, and to the strains of inspiring music, were seated.

From all parti of eastern Washing ton and northern Idaho comes the samo story a buuvy tall in the niok of time, for Lmger drouth, would have meant tbe failure ot fall wheat to sprout in time to make a strong staud before tbe winter months. In view of this possibility, au estimate that the value of 24 hours' ruiu in the Inland Empire ia over a million dollars seems justified. lu parts of tLe Palouse no rain had fallen siuce May, at Wenatohee tbe last waa fully two months ago, while at Harrington the earth was dry even deeper thau a plow would cut. Beside this, with tbe heavy grain hauling, tbe roads throughout this section had become deep with dust, in plaoes so much so that travel was practically suspended except 'n uigeut cases. This bas been remedied by tbe rain. Not only I he wheat Melds, but the orchard tactions ha.e been bnnelitted' and the stockmen are rejoiaiug in improved pasturage. For Chapped Skin.

Ii claimed that the fruit looked w II en the tree but when it was picked and packed it would ui t Uul up. Compared with barrelled slock, hp pies from the far West io boxes are bringing good prices. Mrst lines are selliug $1 75 at 2.75 While this ia behind last j ear, tbia till netche was somewhat leduced tbia week, but reoeipti aro running so much lo ordl nary grades that there la still much poor fruit around. It is surprising that in the face of so heavy ipeeipta that uo glut occurred or that a sharp break did n"t occur. Receipts were close to 150 cars this week. The movement baa been steady all son sou ad tbe docks hare cleaned op pretty well each day. One of the officials said that they were in better shape this season than they had been last as at no time had there been sorioni glut this year. Tbe Hudson river fruit baa about wound up and as tbe bulk of this waa of tbe ordinay and inferior grades receivers were glad to tee it out of tbe way. Theie was a better demand for export aod i s tbia trade took tbe better Hues of fruit the marketl on Al fruit was in excel lent shape. Out of say C I cats, prob ably only a doen wore ot the best quality. So much of the belter fruit Is beiug stored that there is little letl for tbe local demand. Tbe Jewish holidays early this woek and those following next created a better call aud any good Hues of fruit were rap idly snapped up. The supply of red fruit whioh has been smaller than the demand waa rapidly cleaned up. Some lines wete woimy and showed poor color. There is a good call tor soft fruit, on the dock (Jieeings have been bringing growers some good money aud con sidering that a barrel of niott of the Western Mew lork fruit can be bought for about tbe same nrice aa the boxed which is about one-third less in quantity these prices are high er than the rear by fruit. GTS Receipts last week were heavy and they ran considerably ahead of tbe same week a year ago. In all 80.66'.) bbla were received, while duiing the same week a year ago the receipts reached 68, 278 bbls. Tbe season also shows cousideiable advance over last year. During 1!X)8 up to last week 1,104, lGi bbla. were received while the same period a year ago showed 915,012 bbla. Repoits not only from western Nsw Vork bu' from other apple producing sections iudioate that the recent drouth baa done cmsiderable damage and that the total output will be cur tailed. The inquiry which apple growers in tbe far West ate mailing in tbe hast Indicates that are soeklug au outlet in eastern markets. Many of the large growers feared they would have strong competitiou from eastern fruit and did not expect a very good trade this year Things now look more favorable, lu western New York there ia more desire shown to purchase fruit thau some time ago. The alarm over the shortage in the orop was lespoueihle for tbo activity. Ibe lotd sbipmeut ot fruit from Mont roi l and Qtiebpo for lust week reached 51,524 bbls. aud '2,260 boxes. Compared with tbe same week a yiar ago those llgures show a fulling oft as 54 900 bbls. aud 1,911 boxes were ex ported. The export movement of apples from New York waa very light this week in cousequeuce ot the Hudson river fruit being mostly marketed. Shipments from other American ports were heavy. The latest reports from Liverpool indicate au eisy foreign market and little or uo demand for a green fruit. Quotations on Hudson liver apples were 9 at 14s. Ked apples are most lu demaud i brohd, but the market for these is somewhat easy in consequeucn ot a fair supply of do mestic trult coming In every day. Montreal is rusbiug fruit abroad so as to got in bet licks before navigation closes. Chicago Produce News. Dress for Business Women Anna Steese Hicbardsou talks to business girls in the August Wo man's Home Companiou on the im portance ot good taste in dress. Said a Frenchman to Mra. Richard son uot loug ago, as they sauntered through a model department store: "Your working girls they are on deful. See, tbey are ladies I Snob well kept-bauds, such beautifully coil ed heads, such smart shoes I They must spend much time to make them selves ready for work. Nowhere else in tbe world will you see such girls earning their living." "The self-suppcrting woman in America has wou an enviable rrputa tion for good taste in d rets, "says tbe writer "Not even in Paris, where every woman ia supposed to be cbic and to have an 'air,' do the self sup porting g it la bear the sta p ot geu tility in clothes that yuu can note in any large city or factory town in the United States " Eggs is Egg Let as sing the praise of, tbe Great American Hen, who during the past year, may well have cackled with pride over tbe production of nearly one billion three hundred million dozen of eggs! Do you realise what that means? Well, Ii ten: If, instnad of remaining quietly 'it home in Iowa, she had chosen to dem onstrate her powers to the universe at large, the Hen might have laid those eggs, each two iuobes loug, end to end, in a continuous chain rc: cbiug 238,813 miles to the moon, back i gain, aud then more thau hail way i.iuund tbe world for good measure a total of 492,424 miles of eggs ! 1'urther more, if those eggs had been made in to one omelet bait an inch thick, that omelet w uld easily have covered Manhattan It-laud, an area of tweutj two squa.e mi. eg! An old Mohammedan legend tell that King Solomon used to travel thrjugb the air with nil his armies on a wou ltrlul flyi"g carpet, pio'ei.t ed rom the rays nf the tun by tbe wiuge of a host of bi-de. Now, ao cording tn tbe poultry census, there are in tbe United States about two hundred aud eighty millions of bick ens, guinea fowls, turkeys, geese and ducks of the poultry votir.g age, which is thie. mouths or over. If re quired to furnish a moving cauopy like that of King Solomon, the barn yard fowls of this country, allowing only a foot of spread to eacb, could easily shadow a space of ten square miles. Arthur Uuiterman in October Woman's Home Compauion. A Protest in The Aiame or Humanity. Noting tout tbe season bas again ap proached to which the pernioious hab it ot rat dropping is indulged in, and ohserring already some instances f the kind, a few words upon tbe sub ject may not be untimely. In the first place it is a reprehensible act for one to carry away cats and little de teuteless kitteua and drop them along the wnyside and in front of other peo ple's houses. To say the very least ot it, it is shirking one's own's responsibilities and throwing them npou his neighbor a selfish thing to do in any event to say nothing of tbe sufleriug en tailed thereby upon a defenceless and Innocent little animal; tor it is pre sumable to say that every family who will keep a oat ia already provided with as many as they want, and cats so left frightened and helpless sel dom Hud homes, or even a rude shel ter from inclement weather, which tbe cat Is by nature not fitted to en dure. Pew people there ate who are willing to shoulder other people's bur dens, and few indeed who will take in an animal thrust upon their bounty; excusing themselves with tbe thought, "It ia not any of mine,'" and so tbe helpless creature ia driven about to endure both cold and hunger until death more merciful than we- at last releases it. Is it not vastly more merciful to diepatoh as quickly and painlessly as possible little kittens as soon as tbey are born than to treat them in the cruel manner just stated? Every one is in a manner, Jrespons ible for all animals that come to them and every family ought to care for as many helpless aud inuocent ones aa their means will allow, especially so useful an animal as tbe cat. That wisest of mau, King Solomon, roigued his horse aside so as uot to disturb a oolony of those small creatures, tbe ants; aud in reply to the questioning look of surprise in the eyes of the Queeu of Sheba, answered: "The great should always protect the weak." Why should we allow a king to be more compassionate and mag nanimous than ourselves? We are poor indeed, both in purse and heart wbo cannot afford to provide for one or more oats and a dog Let both our purses and our hearts be open to these helpless oreaturea dependent up on our bounty end whom it has pleased an All wise Father to create, aud surely we will never be poorer for it. Blesaiugs oonie from kindness and love, and there ia ao occult signifi oatioe lu the proverb "It is more blessed tc give thau to receive" a bidden meaning which few understand but which all would do well to seek out. lu the worda of the "Ancient Mariner :" "He livetb best who loveth best, All things both preit and small, For tbe dear tU d wbo lovetb us He made and loveth all."
